Travelle Lamar Burros, 41, of 902 Union Blvd., was arrested Thursday morning after police found him hiding inside a vacant house in Union. He is accused of killing his stepfather Raymond Davis, 61, who was reported missing April 15.

Police suspected foul play when Davis was first reported missing. His body was found Wednesday in a densely-wooded area behind the 902 Union Blvd. home.

An arrest warrant released by the Union Public Safety Department on Monday states that Burros struck Davis in the back of the head with a blunt object and used a sharp object to strike him in the neck, leading to Davis’ death.

Union County Coroner William Holcombe said an autopsy was conducted Friday and determined Davis died from blunt force trauma.

Holcombe said the homicide investigation is ongoing.

Burros is being held without bond at the Union County jail, charged with murder and second-degree burglary.

Criminal background records from the S.C. Law Enforcement Division show that Burros was previously convicted of simple assault from an incident in 1991 but listed no other criminal charges since then.

Burros and Davis had lived together.

Police in Union are still asking the public to offer any information they may have on the homicide by calling 864-427-0800.
